They're trying to save democracy by walking out on it.
Texas state lawmakers, enacting an intricately plotted escape, left their posts and the Lone Star state itself and took flight to Washington on Monday on an extraordinary mission to halt Republican restrictive voting bills built on former President Donald Trump's fraud lies.
After stepping off two chartered jets, they insisted they planned to stay until a highly unlikely scenario unfolds in which moderate Democratic senators kill filibuster rules used by the GOP to block voting rights reform. - CNN
Gov. Greg Abbott, the Texas Republican, criticized state Democrats who fled to Washington, D.C., on Monday in an effort to deprive the Legislature of a quorum, thus the ability to vote on the GOP's sweeping elections overhaul bill.
Abbott appeared on "The Ingraham Angle" on Monday to defend the bill and say the missing lawmakers will be arrested upon their return to the state. He said members of the Texas House of Representatives who are still in the state can call for the arrests of their colleagues who do not show up to vote. The one caveat is the arrest has to be made in the state. - FoxNews

Governor Abbott Vows Texas Dems Will Be Arrested Upon Return to State - NR
Every detail of Monday afternoon's news about the daring escape from Austin of almost five dozen legislators seemed made for television.
At least 50 Democratic members of the Texas House of Representatives were ferried out of the state on private planes chartered specifically for their abscondence. Their destination: Washington, D.C. For how long? Weeks — at least. And they did it while facing the threat of arrest and mandatory return to Texas should the Republicans left behind order the Department of Public Safety to track them down.
I have to hand it to Texas Democrats — they have a flair for the dramatic. - MSNBC

"We are coming to DC to put pressure on them to act, because this isn't just Texas," Texas Democratic state Rep. John Bucy III told CNN's Erin Burnett on Monday. - CNN
